It may take at least a week to go half around the world. Hopefully by the end of this week (4/9/05). I'll let you know when I got them. RunPDA replied my email and said they do not and have no plan to work on TH55 RAM upgrade. Changing battery is a pretty straight forward job. Ezipda, the Hong Kong battery supplier, has sent me a pdf procedure for an NX. I have done it myself on my N760C w/o any problem. The TH55 would be even easier since it has the battery door. __________________ Vx, M500, N760P, NX70V/U, NX73V/U, NZ90/U, SL10/U, SJ30/U, T415, T615C, TJ25/U, TJ27/U, TJ35/E1, TH55/U, TH55/E1, TH55/E2, UX40/U, UX50/U, UX180P, iPhone, iPhone3G Last edited by DanT : 04-03-2005 at 10:18 PM.

Does Ezipda do TH55 batteries? I don't see any on their eBay store. But they do have SJ30 batteries. I will need to compare prices of the batteries and shipping fee. Thanx again, DanT! __________________ SJ30 -> SJ33 -> T\|E -> TH55

You can verify it by looking at the parts number for it in Laptop for Less site. They list it as : UP503759-NR70TH or UP503759-NR70. Get it? __________________ Vx, M500, N760P, NX70V/U, NX73V/U, NZ90/U, SL10/U, SJ30/U, T415, T615C, TJ25/U, TJ27/U, TJ35/E1, TH55/U, TH55/E1, TH55/E2, UX40/U, UX50/U, UX180P, iPhone, iPhone3G Last edited by DanT : 04-04-2005 at 06:29 AM.

Received them 2 days ago. They look brand new to me and include 1 year warranty.

BTW, the Brando tri-wing screw driver (PENGFA 2.0x50, blue handle with red swivel end) works great for removing the battery cover and flipcover.

I've been so busy, I completely forgot abt buying batteries for my SJ30. And I've yet to write to RunPDA.

That's correct.

Got the info on this thread.

http://www.1src.com/forums/showthread.php?t=83998

It was working a couple days ago. Maybe a system glitch?

You can get the 4AA case from RadioShack and the connector from pc-mobile.net. You end up spending about the same amount of money as those battery extenders sold in ebay (about $10), but you have fun doing it. __________________ Vx, M500, N760P, NX70V/U, NX73V/U, NZ90/U, SL10/U, SJ30/U, T415, T615C, TJ25/U, TJ27/U, TJ35/E1, TH55/U, TH55/E1, TH55/E2, UX40/U, UX50/U, UX180P, iPhone, iPhone3G Last edited by DanT : 04-14-2005 at 07:28 PM.

Here is the procedure for replacing TH55 battery, courtesy of Laptop for Less:

A piece of cake! No need to send it out. If I can do it, anyone certainly can.

Nice job! The one I got is quite nice. Even has a switch and an LED to show it's on.

The only remark is that I'm not sure I'd take mine in a camping trip. Maybe if inside one of those waterproof/shockproof cases...
